Cox said the duo are quite similiar — stubborn people, who aren't into people pleasing.

Jones is intrigued by Murdock and says she and Daredevil will "go toe-to-toe."

Ritter hints there will be some "cat and mouse" between the two.

When Netflix's superhero team-up "The Defenders" comes to the streaming site in August, it will unite its four Marvel heroes, but the team-up fans may be most excited for is that of Jessica Jones and Daredevil who eventually cross paths on the show.

While the brooding devil of Hell's Kitchen and the private eye may seem like an unlikely duo, the two have more in common than you may realize. INSIDER sat down with "The Defenders" stars Charlie Cox and Krysten Ritter in New York City Monday to talk about their characters finally meeting for the first time.

"I was excited about this relationship in particular just because, you know, they're very similar," Cox told INSIDER. "They're quite stubborn people. They're set in their ways to some extent. I don't think Jessica or Matt have really any people pleasing kind of stuff going on. They don't care if other people like them or not."

When the two first meet, Matt Murdock tries to give Jessica some legal advice, but she can't help but feel there's something off about him. When she puts her investigating skills to use, she's surprised by what she finds.

"These characters go toe-to-toe and they feel like they're very much on equal footing." she continued. "Jessica doesn't feel like that with a lot of people. So that's interesting. So she follows him a little bit and there's a lot of cat and mouse there, and there's a lot of earning of trust, which is fun. It was fun to play."

Hopefully, after the mini-series ends, there's opportunity for the two to work together again on either the next season of "Jessica Jones" or "Daredevil." After all, the two aren't that far away from each other in New York City.

You'll be able to see the two team up later this month when all eight episodes of "The Defenders" come to Netflix August 18.
